Heaven can Wait Charity Sailing Regatta

3rd June 2015

Mr GREG PIPER (Lake Macquarie) [1.30 p.m.], by leave: I would like to acknowledge the organisers of the annual Heaven Can Wait Charity Sailing Regatta for another outstanding fundraising effort and a successful event in 2015. This year's regatta was the ninth such event and raised $25,000, primarily for the Hunter branch of the Cancer Council NSW to provide domestic support services to local cancer patients but also for Lake Macquarie Marine Rescue. The event is the brainchild of cancer survivor Shaun Lewicki, who was ably supported by a cast of enthusiastic supporters and sponsors, including the Lake Macquarie Royal Motor Yacht Club, Marmong Point Marina and Lake Macquarie Marine Rescue.
